本文探讨了如何将积极心理学原则纳入临床培训和实践，以与女同性恋，男同性恋，双性恋和变性（LGBT）客户一起工作。LGBT心理学文献往往依赖于异性恋和顺性恋群体作为心理健康方面的规范，主要是通过精神病理学的视角来构建LGBT个体的经历。因此，在培训和实践中，可以归因于LGBT经历的优势被忽视了。虽然积极心理学正被积极地纳入临床和咨询心理学课程，但扩大范式以包括LGBT个体通常没有被包括在讨论中。在与LGBT客户一起工作和庆祝他们独特的经历时，提供了培训心理学家融入和培养积极的社会制度、积极的主观体验和性格优势的具体建议。
This paper examines how positive psychology principles can be incorporated into clinical training and practice to work with lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) clients. LGBT psychology literature has all too often relied on heterosexual and cisgender reference groups as the norm with respect to psychological health, primarily framing the experiences of LGBT individuals through the lens of psychopathology. As a result, strengths that could be ascribed to the LGBT experience have been overlooked within training and practice. While positive psychology is actively being incorporated into clinical and counseling psychology curricula, broadening the paradigm to include LGBT individuals has generally not been included in the discussion. Specific recommendations for training psychologists to incorporate and foster positive social institutions, positive subjective experiences and character strengths when working with LGBT clients and celebrating their unique experiences are provided.
